I Want To Say Thanks To Everyone

R.D.P.

That has been trying to help me make a return to Radio broadcasting. For a few years now, I've been trying to do just that. Although my door hasn't opened yet, I'm not giving up yet. The writing career is doing very well right now. A new book is in the works, as I'm posting. Hope to have it out real soon. Would love to bring a new CCM radio station to my hometown but I still have some doubts about it working here. This community is very backwards and loves to dwell on the past too much. I want to change that attitude and help bring some real excitement to it. I'm still not asking for much though. All I want is to bring something to the dial, that'll help Minister to the youth population. The adults already have their Christian music stations and programs. The youth now needs something and I feel that I'm the one God will use to help fill in that hole. My presentation, if it works out, will be Hot AC to CHR leaning. I'm doing this on purpose. I'm not worried about the attitudes and/or attacks I'll catch from the more mature crowds. They got their Moody, AFR and every other radio station that does a block of Gospel. CCM is the hole that exist and I want to plug it in. As I've stated many times before, if we had something like a KSBJ and/or WAY FM it would be a potential goldmine, in a underformatted city like mine. And yes I'm slightly handicapped that lives on a fixed income. People for Jesus doesn't have a budget at all. It's by God's Amazing Grace, that I can keep this Ministry going and keep on passing out the Bible Tracts that I create and also send out Bible Verses through E-Mail. This book, once released, won't make me much money but I could careless. I want to use it to help change lives and win lost souls to Jesus. If God does allow me to publish it, then I'll be excited and stoked indeed. I want to expand People for Jesus and see it become something big. Starting up this radio station will be a big event for me and this small Ministry. Yes I know that "The Hardliners" will attack me, because of my musical presentation and absolute refusal to harp on the past but I could careless. The past crowd has their own radio station already and it's boring indeed. The mature crowd has their station(s) already and I'm not a big fan of theirs. We CCMers are still without and I want to take care of that need and help bring a real revival to a community that has a real need for it.

RDP,
I pray that God will continue to bless your efforts. Keep praying that he will lead you and that what doors need to open will happen. And if the "mature" crowd attacks you, keep in mind that they're showing how spiritually immature they really are. If this is in God's will he will put people and opportunities in place for your vision to happen, and the critics won't be able to stop it.
 
Ever thought about putting up an Internet station? I know that it may not have as much presence as a terrestrial station, but maybe a place to get started. You could promote the station at local events, and then as funds become available, go to a part 15 station or a full blown FM. Just a thought. Feel free to contact me if you want concerning Internet radio, and I'll give you what information I can. I've been doing it for over 3 years, and enjoy it. I was in Country radio for many years, and miss the radio gig too. For me, in the meantime, my Internet station provides me many hours of fun, though it is work as well, which I don't mind.

Go with God!
 
Thanks for the response.  I may have to do that.  Right now I'm still Praying for God to have His way with this.

P.S. Wherever He leads me that's where I'll go.
 
[email protected] Feel free to email me.. Let me know what market you are in. I am trying to make a small AM go with Sports/Local Talk and a new FM translator coming... But, my first love is working with youth and young at heart folks thru CCM Radio and Media... Go to www.xtrlive.com and check what I am doing with Bill Scott (Both used to work with Way-Fm)...
